Author Notes:This recipe was inspired by "Mushroom Soup" by Max Seider from Cup of Seider at cupofseider.com. I was looking for a chanterelle mushroom (pfifferlinge in German) soup after our neighbor, who is German, invited us to pick some chanterelles at their home here in Washington. My parents, who live in Germany were also newly introduced to these fungi and after we found two grocery full bags of pfifferlinges at our neighbor's property I had to find a way to cook them all up! With autumn approaching, a light soup sounded perfect. The original mushroom soup from cup of seider calls for all varieties of mushrooms. I liked letting the chanterelles take center stage, as their flavor is quite one of a kind. I also increased garlic a bit, as I love it. And used fresh but chopped chanterelles (pfifferlinge) instead of dried. Enjoy on cool September evenings! —chefw3
